Hey there Hive fam,

This weeks theme is “Lindas Palabras” which means 'Nice or Beautiful words'

I've decided to cover the song 'Island in the sun' by American Rock band - Weezer on Ukulele.
I'm currently on leave from my work at the moment and this song is stuck in my head.
I was a kid the first time I heard the song, and I loved the tune and lyrics. Something so simple yet catchy.
The song is fairly simple of the ukulele with just 4 chords (Em Am D G) mainly with an extra one (C) in the bridge.

Here's the link to the original song -

Here are the lyrics to the song -

Hip, hip
Hip, hip
Hip, hip
Hip, hip
When you're on a holiday
You can't find the words to say
All the things that come to you
And I wanna feel it too
On an island in the sun
We'll be playin' and havin' fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can't control my brain
Hip, hip
Hip, hip
When you're on a golden sea
You don't need no memory
Just a place to call your own
As we drift into the zone
On an island in the sun
We'll be playin' and havin' fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can't control my brain
We'll run away together
We'll spend some time forever
We'll never feel bad anymore
Hip, hip
Hip, hip
Hip, hip
On an island in the sun
We'll be playin' and havin' fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can't control my brain
We'll run away together
We'll spend some time forever
We'll never feel bad anymore
Hip, hip
(We'll never feel bad anymore)
Hip, hip
(No) hip, (no), hip
(We'll never feel bad anymore)
Hip, hip
(No) hip, (no), hip
(No) hip, (no), hip

Hope you like the cover, and I hope you have a great weekend ahead :D
